I felt confident in everyone's level of competency in every respectDale, Franklin, Kentucky, 05 11 17

My case began with an abscess. One, possibly two teeth. They did their best with a root canal to save them, but it wasn't possible. In pulling both teeth, one of the roots separated and needed to be surgically extracted. That's when the surgical doctor took over and extracted that root, then sutured my gum. Although obviously unpleasant, I never felt worried. I felt confident in everyone's level of competency in every respect.
Couldn't ask for better treatment and people. Everything, top to bottom, was/is very professional. I live in the U.S but hope to have as much of my dental work done here as possible. 3 different dentists attended to me and I give each of them high praise. One thing I appreciate is that each of them are willing to ask the others for a 2nd opinion; no egos involved, just total consideration for the well-being and comfort of the patient. They also did not charge me for the root canals, but only for the extractions, which was less than root canals. From the time I walked into the waiting/reception room, to being inside the clinic to ending treatment, in all phases, I am so impressed with everything. I would recommend anyone come here for anything related to dental. All the dentists, assistants and office staff are the best of the best.
